03ED87B5FFBA230B11A6D9C7FBF82732.taxon	type_taxon	Type species: — Heveicola xishuangbannaensis R. F. Xu, K. D. Hyde & Tibpromma	en	Xu, Ruifang, Hyde, Kevin D., Karunarathna, Samantha C., Xu, Jian-Chu, Mortimer, Peter E., Tibpromma, Saowaluck (2022): Morphology and multi-gene phylogeny reveal a new fungal genus and species from Hevea brasiliensis latex in Yunnan, China. Phytotaxa 530 (1): 65-76, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.530.1.5
03ED87B5FFBA230B11A6D9C7FBF82732.taxon	etymology	Etymology: — named after the host genus, Hevea. Saprobic on decaying wood, leaves and rubber latex in terrestrial habitats. Sexual morph: Undetermined. Asexual morph: Hyphomycetous. Colonies on natural substrate, mass of spores all over the surface. Conidiophores macronematous, synnematous, erect, brown to dark brown, cylindrical, septate. Conidia catenate, ellipsoidal or oblong, 0 – 4 to multi-septate, slightly constricted at median septum, rounded at both ends, formed in acropetal chains, often with a dark brown band at the septa, initially hyaline, pale brown to brown. Notes: — Asexual morphs of all genera in Wiesneriomycetaceae have conidia produced in acropetal chains. The new genus also has chains of septate conidia, fitting the concept of Wiesneriomycetaceae. Heveicola differs morphologically from other members in Wiesneriomycetaceae (see key below).	en	Xu, Ruifang, Hyde, Kevin D., Karunarathna, Samantha C., Xu, Jian-Chu, Mortimer, Peter E., Tibpromma, Saowaluck (2022): Morphology and multi-gene phylogeny reveal a new fungal genus and species from Hevea brasiliensis latex in Yunnan, China.

03ED87B5FFBB230811A6DE45FC1027EB.taxon	etymology	Etymology: — named after the location Xishuangbanna where the fungus was first discovered. Saprobic on rubber latex of Hevea brasiliensis. Sexual morph: Undetermined. Asexual morph: Hyphomycetous. Colonies on natural substrate consisting of long, effuse, dark synnemata, scattered, somewhat hairy, mass of spores all over the surface. Synnemata 850 – 1000 × 90 – 135 μm (x ̅ = 943 × 112 μm, n = 6), consisting of pale brown to dark brown, cylindrical, septate, unbranched, smooth-walled conidiophores. Conidia 15 – 40 × 5 – 8 μm (x ̅ = 26.6 × 6.5 μm, n = 20), catenate, cylindrical, 0 – 4 to multiseptate (on PDA, conidia up to 20 - septate), slightly constricted at median septum, rounded at both ends, formed in acropetal chains, initially hyaline, then pale brown to brown, often with a dark brown band at the septa, guttulate, thick- and rough-walled. Culture characteristics: — cultures on PDA, colonies slow growing, umbonate, curled, smooth, edges brown, dark brown, mycelia 2.5 – 6 μm wide, hyaline, septate, conidia 10 – 70 × 5 – 12 μm (x ̅ = 27.7 × 6.8 μm, n = 30), oblong, up to 20 - septate, pale brown to brown, thick- and rough-walled (Fig. 3).	en	Xu, Ruifang, Hyde, Kevin D., Karunarathna, Samantha C., Xu, Jian-Chu, Mortimer, Peter E., Tibpromma, Saowaluck (2022): Morphology and multi-gene phylogeny reveal a new fungal genus and species from Hevea brasiliensis latex in Yunnan, China.

03ED87B5FFBB230811A6DE45FC1027EB.taxon	materials_examined	Material examined: — CHINA. Yunnan Province: Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, on old rubber latex (oozing from the trunk) of Hevea brasiliensis Müll. Arg., 24 November 2020, Ruifang Xu, XSBNR- 07 (HKAS 115759, holotype); ex-type living cultures KUMCC 21 - 0086. Notes: — In the phylogenetic analyses Heveicola xishuangbannaensis forms a monophyletic branch within Wiesneriomycetaceae with strong statistical support (Fig. 1). Heveicola xishuangbannaensis is similar to Speiropsis and Phalangispora in the shape and colour of the conidia, but it can differ in having a dark brown band at the septa and branches. No sexual morph has been reported so far in Wiesneriomycetaceae.	en	Xu, Ruifang, Hyde, Kevin D., Karunarathna, Samantha C., Xu, Jian-Chu, Mortimer, Peter E., Tibpromma, Saowaluck (2022): Morphology and multi-gene phylogeny reveal a new fungal genus and species from Hevea brasiliensis latex in Yunnan, China.
